Welcome to the USA of 2025, where condemning genocide is deemed antisemitism and can get you deported, but building concentration camps and calling bankers ‘Shylocks’ doesn’t get condemned by the news media at all.

Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.

President Donald Trump said an image he showed South Africa’s president depicted “burial” sites, but the rows of crosses were in memory of two murdered farmers. Some of the video clips of political leaders are years old. buff.ly/L1ZuQ95

I just don't know where to begin. This just shows that they think these people are not human!

We strongly advise the public not to do this, it’s unsafe. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted photos of himself and his grandkids swimming in Rock Creek, a Washington waterway so contaminated with sewage runoff that swimming has been banned citywide for over 50 years.

How Vaccines are Developed and Approved for Use
Learn how vaccines are developed and approved for use.
🧵1/
RFK Jr. says childhood vaccines weren’t tested and that COVID boosters need full trials every year.
That’s not how vaccines—or science—work. Time for a #FactCheckFriday!
Let’s talk about how vaccines are tested, and how this kind of talk puts real people at risk.

Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores.
This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.
Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

This just resonates with me, I have always felt like they judge others so they don't have to look at themselves.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
